The Salmon was flowing at 9 feet that day, and Crapo looked good to go at the confluence.<BR/><BR/> Upon our arrival at put-in (the shuttle driver had already left us) we realized that we were committed to a full day of SURVIVAL BOATING. We found that many of the rapids at high water were unrunnable, and most of the little in-between rapids actually contained sticky recirculating ledges...Actually, less than 1/4 mile from the put-in, Zawacki broke his paddle in the very same drop that Paul had broken his two weeks before. Consider portaging this chunky slide into a backed-up hole. <BR/><BR/>In summary: 9 feet is too high, 7 feet on the gauge is perfect, and 5 feet is too low. Crapo is a much higher quality run than its reputation would leave you to believe, but it is a full-day run not to be taken lightly. Stay heads-up and be sure to have all the correct safety equipment, breakdown paddle and first-aid kit. I'd give it 4 stars out of a possible 5. <BR/>Dan MentenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14580059.post-1149192196492265212006-06-01T13:03:00.000-07:002006-06-01T13:03:00.000-07:00LIGARE LIGARE your my boyLIGARE LIGARE your my boyE.G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07606149653979412772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14580059.post-1147879478244191012006-05-17T08:24:00.000-07:002006-05-17T08:24:00.000-07:00Jim, Thanks, drop me a line anytime you are kayak...Jim,<BR/> Thanks, drop me a line anytime you are kayaking up in the Salmon, Scott or Shasta area too.
